Note: We recommend the number of LED drivers connected to each 0/1-10V output does not exceed 50 pieces, The maximum length of the wires from decoder to LED driver should be no more than 50 meters.

Operation

System parameter setting
  • Long press M and ◀ key for 2s, prepare for setup system parameter:
    decode mode, 0/1-10V output, output brightness curve, default output level, automatic blank screen. short press M key to switch ve item.

  • Decode mode: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch one-channel decode(“d-1”), two-channel decode(“d-2”) or four-channel decode(“d-4”).When set as 1 channel decode, the decoder occupy only 1 DMX address, and four channel output the same brightness of this DMX address.

  • 0/1-10V output: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch 0-10V(“0-0”) or 1-10V(“1-0”).

  • Output brightness curve: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch linear curve(“C-L”) or logarithmic curve(“C-E”).

  • Default output level: press ◀ or ▶ key to change default 0-100% level (“d00” to “dFF” ) when no DMX input signal.

  • Automatic  blank screen: short press ◀ or ▶ key to switch enable (“bon”) or disable(“boF”) automatic blank screen.

  • Long press M key for 2s or timeout 10s, quit system parameter setting.

DMX mode
  • ● Short press M key, when display 001~512, enter DMX mode.
  • Press ◀ or ▶ key to change DMX decode address(001~512), long press for fast adjustment.
  • If there is a DMX signal input, will enter DMX mode automatically.
  • DMX Dimming: Each DL DMX decoder occupy 4 DMX address when connecting the DMX console.
    For example, the defaulted start address is 1, their corresponding relationship in the form:
    DMX mode (001~512)

DMX Console DMX Decoder Output
CH1 0-255 CH1 0-10V
CH2 0-255 CH2 0-10V
CH3 0-255 CH3 0-10V
CH4 0-255 CH4 0-10V
Stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode
  • Short press M key, when display P01~P24, enter stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode.

  • Press ◀ or ▶ key to change dynamic mode number(P01~P24).

  • Each mode can adjust speed and brightness. Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup mode speed, brightness, W channel brightness.
    Short press M key to switch three item.
    Stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode (P01~P24)

    Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup value of each item. Mode speed:1-10 level speed(S-1, S-9, S-F). Mode brightness:1-10 level brightness(b-1, b-9, b-F). W channel brightness: 0-255 level brightness(400-4FF). Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.

  • Enter stand-alone RGB/RGBW mode only when DMX signal is disconnected or lost.

Stand-alone dimmer mode
  • Short press M key, when display L-1~L-8, enter stand-alone dimmer

  • Press ◀ or ▶ key to change dimmer mode number(L-1~L-8).

  • Each dimmer mode can adjust each channel brightness Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup four channel brightness.
    Short press M key to switch four channel(100~1FF, 200~2FF, 300~3FF, 400~4FF). Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup brightness value of each channel.
